I just want to write about my brother Pauli. He died when we were only puppies. He was the best brother anyone could have. He was so cute and so funny and so kind to me. I didn't really believe he was dead. He was playing and running and laughing with that wonderful "buf buf" he used to do and then he just lay down and didn't get up. We thought he was playing a joke. My auntie said he had "kennel cough". I can't forget him. When I think about him, I just have to put something in my mouth and carry it around, like a toy or a doll or a bone. This is his memory in my mouth. I taste him inside, I smell him in my innermost places. He runs with me when I sleep and he barks to me when I am awake. I will never forget him. Please just pick up a bone or toy and carry it around today, just for a little while, and think of my brother Pauli.
In the photo, that is me looking for my brother right after he died. Can you see the puzzle in my eyes? The confusion? Maybe something in me died that day, as I never really recovered.
Thanks for listening.

HI, everyone,
I am shy to write my own diary entry. I hope you all like it.
I am worried about Mochi. He was very very sick last week. He usually likes to jump up on the couch and then up to the back of the couch so he can be the king of the first floor. On Sunday, he was too weak to climb up and too unsteady to stay there. Daddy tried to lift him up, but he was too embarrassed to stay there. He was in great pain. Daddy said he had and inflamed pancreas. Funny, Mochi is such a small dog, and is not fat in the slightest. Now he has to eat low fat dog food, and he hates it. He likes dry dog food, and prefers it to moist dog food, but he doesn't like low fat dog food.
Anyway, I know I complained about Mochi being so bossy, but I want the old Mochi back. I won't complain any more if Mochi can be his old self again.
Thanks for everyone welcoming me to America, to California. I will try to live up to your expectations.
Licks and Kisses,
Meiren Secor

Hi, Everybody,
Well, I finally got over my cough and I will be coming to America on Friday. At first, the vet said I couldn't travel because of my cough, but it is better now. My butt is sore from all the shots. I have to get them so I can get on and off the plane. My cousin said to drink a lot of water. I guess it is dry on the plane. I can't believe I will be a world traveling dog fairly soon. First to Beijing, then Shanghai, then San Francisco. Then to Fremont. Then I get to see my dear brother and sister.
Now Mochi, don't be impatient. I expect some breathing space when I get there. Don't show off like all those uncivilized male dogs do, running around like drunken sailors, running into things, acting crazy, fighting, barking loud. If you want to be my friend, you have to be calm and civilized.
See you all soon.
By the way, thanks for your kind notes about Pauli. He is still in my heart.
Bye, Dolly.
Oh, by the way, my uncle has changed my name to Marilin. The Chinese name is "Meiren" which means beautiful person. I don't think I am very beautiful, but I will let Mochi decide that.
Bye,
Dolly

Hi, all,
I have some very bad news.
My brother Pauli died. I barely knew him. He was named after Wolfgang Pauli, the famous physicist who discovered the Pauli exclusion principle.
Now he is dead. He was happy and playing the one minute, and then he stopped moving. We all thought he was playing a joke. We just kept nipping at him and pawing him. Then we knew he would never move again. I never cry, buy I even cried. My aunt could not stop crying for a long time. My uncle just stared and sat quietly. The funny thing is, my auntie did not used to even like dogs. But she loves us so! My brother was funny. He played so many jokes on us, on the cat, and on everyone. He was going to go to America with me. We were not just brother and sister, we were best friends, and now I can barely even finish my diary because of my shock.
Cousin WangWang sends his love.
Don't forget Pauli. Put on a white collar just for his memory. Somehow we will see him when we go to heaven. I am coming in September with Samantha, my human sister. I am fine, by the way. I wish I could stop crying.
Did I mention not to forget Pauli? He lives in my broken heart.
Bye for now.

Hi, everyone,
I was born in June 2005, so I am very small. I am living with my cousin WangWang in Harbin, China. My uncle is a nice man. I want to meet my Mommy and Daddy soon, they are in California. I have never been to California. I speak only Doggy Chinese, so I hope I can learn Doggy English soon. My aunt says it is time to eat dinner, so bye for now. Hope to meet some of you at the park. Right now I am too small to go to the park, and anyway, I have to fly to California first.
Bye Bye, Life is not ruff when your smile is softer than your bark!
I love you all, and I want to see you all soon!
Love, your loving sister,
Dolly
